Questions and Answers

How does increasing the temperature usually affect the pressure exerted by a gas in a closed container?

  • Has no effect on the pressure.
  • Increases the pressure due to more frequent and forceful collisions of molecules with the container walls. (correct)
  • Decreases the pressure due to slower molecular motion.
  • Initially increases the pressure, but it stabilizes at a lower value over time.

Liquid pressure at a specific depth is affected by the shape of the container holding the liquid.

False (B)

Explain how adding more solute affects the concentration of a solution, assuming the amount of solvent remains constant.

Adding more solute increases the concentration of the solution.

Study Notes

  • Liquids: Section 1

Learning Objectives

  • Understand how pressure is created by liquid and gas molecules.
  • Learn the definition of concentration.
  • Differentiate between solute and solvent, understanding how concentration is increased or decreased.

Liquid Pressure

  • A liquid contained in a vessel exerts thrust at all points below its free surface and exerts a liquid pressure.

Application of Liquid Pressure

  • Water in the storage tank is maintained at a high pressure due to gravitational pull for public water supply systems.

Concentration

  • Concentration is the measure of how much solute is dissolved in a specific amount of solvent.
  • Concentrations can range from dilute to concentrated.
  • Concentration can be measured using numerical quantities.
  • Measurements include % by mass, % by volume, dilutions, and molarity.
  • Concentration can be expressed mathematically as a ratio, such as grams per milliliter.
  • Concentration equals the mass of the solute in grams / 100ml of solution.

Solute, Solvent & Solution

  • Solute is the substance dissolving.
  • Solvent is the liquid the solute dissolves in.
  • Solution is a mixture where the solute is dissolved in a solvent.

Solvents

  • Solvents are the component of a solution present in the largest amount.
  • Solutes dissolve into solvents to form solutions.

Increasing and Decreasing Concentrations

  • Adding more solute or reducing the amount of solvent increases the concentration of the solution.
  • Adding more solvent or reducing the amount of solute decreases the concentration of the solution.
